    And as for pretending you're not a sockie troll, pur-leeze.
    Or, perhaps, you think about what you've done and realise it's wrong? No? I don't have to be told what I have done is wrong, to realise it.

    Are you really that stupid? You're saying she apologised for calling CM a sockie, now you're calling me a sockie?

    Honestly, I couldn't invent someone as stupid as you.

        She apologised for insulting CM (indirectly) while thinking she wasn't real, not for thinking she was a sockie.

        Among the many things you don't know, how to even start a coherent argument is one. Can't you make a better facsimile of a real person in this sockie? Maybe focus on quality rather than posting every 10s.

          Again, the irony is strong. If she wasn't real, then what was she? She said directly she thought it was spods sockie.

          But again, the stupidity of defending someone sledging a supposed sockie, whilst calling me one.

          You really are not that bright are you.

          Again, there are apologies, when you realise you are wrong, then there are apologies, when everyone tells you that you are wrong.

          Can you understand that son?

            Yawn. I'll give you a sheet of statistics and merely by thinking hard, you figure out which ones are right without anyone telling you anything about the underlying data.

            Just give up, you suck.

                Firstly I'd like to unreservedly apologise for using your first name in a post. I crossed the line and I'm sorry, it won't happen again.

                Secondly, the way forward is very simple. Once you cease playing "Billy Big Bollocks" by mentioning my name in your sniping posts I will no longer feel the need to retaliate.

                It's entirely up to you. The olive branch is there, take it or leave it.

                Apology accepted. Big of you to be honest. Let's try to keep it 'incivil' within the boundry rules of CUK please and decide whether we need to be 'civil' IRL if we ever meet up at a CUK do.

                Oh you've been banned again...

                      With regards to the OPs original request, I'd vouch for East London ( Mile End, Stepney, Bow, Whitechapel, Aldgate), lived there years ago and the area has vastly improved since. Also look at in and around Tower hill and if you like venture towards Southwark/Borough areas ( Northern line).

                      Greenwich and Blackheath are nice with good links into London Bridge

                      Am currently staying in Aldgate during the week and am really surprised how much the area has changed, there are lots of newbuilds and loft conversions. You're also well connected with Met, circle, hammersmith and city lines and also the central and district lines.

                      In the end it depends on where you end up working and whether you want to be based centrally or a little bit out. Kingston and Surbiton aren't bad ( lived in Surbiton for a few years) and good connections into Waterloo.

                      As for interviews, aim for phone interviews, most clients will oblige if you live abroad ( it worked for me).

                      Another vote for spareroom.com and also Airbnb.com if you need somewhere to stay while looking for summat more permanent.

                      Good luck!
